Fractures of the distal radius are frequently associated with injuries of the scapholunate (SL) and lunotriquetral (LT) ligaments. Our study is aimed at revealing their hidden lesions by employing a fast and accessible fluoroscopic identification. ⋯ The exclusion of hidden lesions allows earlier rehabilitation, while in patients with signs of lesions, it is appropriate to immobilize the wrist (Tab. 1, Fig. 3, Ref. 31).

The article focuses on main topics related to disease, death, and dying in communication between parents and their adolescent children with this diagnosis. ⋯ Adolescents appreciate age-appropriate, open communication about their disease. Talking about the disease and its prognosis appears to be the way from mutual protection to open truthfulness. Openness also includes the participation of adolescents in further treatment. For some parents, it makes sense to constantly protect the child from the fact of death. Caregivers should support discussions about death between parents and their terminally ill adolescent children and accept individual decisions to talk about death (Tab. 1, Ref. 25).
